Abstract

Context: This webinar was hosted by the MultiSector Dynamics Community of Practice (MSD CoP; https://multisectordynamics.org). Abstract: The energy transition is a game-changer across multiple sectors, requiring researchers and practitioners to re-evaluate the evolving connections between climate, water, and power systems, as well as the associated co-management of resources and decision-making. In anticipation of new technologies, policies, business models, and other solutions, applied science for decision-making at the climate-water-energy nexus is needed to support transitions with the expected climate resilience, maintained and enhanced energy security, thriving economies, and equity considerations. Through panelists' applied research and operational experience, the webinar will provide lesson-learnt in how to increase the readiness of water-energy research and become actionable in the context of energy transitions. A number of themes will be discussed, including the connection between growing computational resources and complexity of models, and the implications on the intended users, the actual actionable products, the availability of data for validation of the models, uncertainty characterization and decision-making under uncertainty, and the communication of the novelty to decision-makers and the public.

MSD CoP Webinar: Energy and AI

Dataset Burleyson, Casey ; Morris, Stephanie T. ; Mongird, Kendall

Context: This webinar was hosted by the MultiSector Dynamics Community of Practice (MSD CoP; https://multisectordynamics.org). Abstract: Projections of the need for new data centers to support Artificial Intelligence (AI) are large but highly uncertain. Recent projections indicate up to a 15% annual growth rate in data center electricity demand within the next 5-10 years. Given that most electric utilities are required to have a reserve margin of roughly the same magnitude as the projected growth in demand, these new data center loads could soon threaten resource adequacy and reliability unless data centers build their own generation, interruptible loads aremore »« less
MSD CoP Webinar: Opportunities for AR7

MSD CoP Webinar: Using Meta-Repositories To Facilitate Open Science in MSD Research

Dataset Vernon, Chris R. ; Burleyson, Casey ; Rice, Jennie ; ...

Context: This webinar was hosted by the MultiSector Dynamics Community of Practice (MSD CoP; https://multisectordynamics.org). Abstract: In this webinar, we will describe the use of a GitHub meta-repository, for documenting and disseminating the tools and data supporting MSD publications. The goal is to make it easier for others to understand the flow of data and code through your experiment and to be able to reproduce your results and figures with only the information you have provided for them. The webinar will cover the role of open science in the MSD community, the origins and purpose of meta-repositories, and step-by-stepmore »« less
MSD CoP Webinar: Advancing MSD Research with Artificial Intelligence

Dataset Galelli, Stefano ; Gold, David ; Sturtevant, Jillian ; ...

Context: This webinar was hosted by the MultiSector Dynamics Community of Practice (MSD CoP; https://multisectordynamics.org). Abstract: Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are quickly changing the landscape of tools available to conceptualize, execute, and disseminate research. We posit that research efforts in Multi-Sector Dynamics can benefit from these advances; the new AI in MSD Working Group thus aims to identify and quantify opportunities and risks associated with their implementation. In this webinar, we will first introduce the new AI Working Group, which was initially conceived during the first MSD workshop in October 2023. Next, our panelists will explore how generativemore »« less
MSD CoP Webinar: Metrics for Human Wellbeing

Dataset Saari, Rebecca ; Giang, Amanda ; Fletcher, Sarah ; ...

Context: This webinar was hosted by the MultiSector Dynamics Community of Practice (MSD CoP; https://multisectordynamics.org). Abstract: Human well-being is an inherently multidimensional concept that broadly refers to what constitutes the "good life". Characterizing well-being requires a wide range of measures of quality of life. Taken together, these can provide a description of well-being and better guide decision making. In this webinar, our panel will first summarize the key themes and recommendations of interdisciplinary conversations that occurred during the course of a two-day, in-person workshop convened by PNNL September 27-28, 2023, which laid the foundations for a new research directionmore »« less
